The reason I love Nintendo is that they focus on publishing appropriate games that are still fun and humerous. Grand theft auto has prostitutes, boobs everywhere, apparnetly now "partial penis" and sex scenes? The whole game is about wild sex and breaking the law. I want no part of that type of game so I could care less if it came to the Wii U. In fact, I hope it doesn't because I think those kinds of games get people hooked on violence, porn, unrealistic expectations, and the idea of abusing people and breaking the law. There is NOTHING positive produced in society by the Grand Theft Auto ip or any games similar to it, NOTHING. It saddens me that it sells so many copies.

Mario games are so enjoyable yet you could see Mario having sex with a goomba prostitute.

You don't see Starfox beating the tar out of somebody while he is trying to steal their car.

I'm glad that when I pay money for a Nintendo game I don't have to worry about these kinds of scenes occuring (Bayonetta being a extremely rare exception it looks like).

I've been playing GTA and GoW since I was 10 and guess what?  I'm one of the most laid back people you'll ever meet with no criminal record and no violent tendencies.  Maybe Mario should stop teaching kids to stomp on turtles?

I'm not going to get into a stupid and foolish argument. The amount of violence, gore, and sex is little or non existent in Nintendo games. In many of microsoft and sony console games there is plenty of it. I'm tired of the slasherporn movies and video games.

It's called fun.  People like it BECAUSE they could never do it in real life.  It's just so absurd and it makes me laugh.  I don't feel "cool" doing it or have any desire to do it in real life or think the violence would be good in real life, but in a game and with the whole environment those games make with all the whacky radio stations and such it just fits.  Sorry if you can't get into them but obviously it works for many people.  I won't deny it's not "kid friendly" and it's not very intellectual or anything, but sometimes you just need ridiculous goofy fun and GTA does that.  Plus there are plenty of exclusives that don't sell on violence for Playstation (Heavy Rain, Rain, Puppeteer, Ratchet, Sly, GT, Journey, and I would even say Uncharted is more for cinema than violence).  Sure GoW, Killzone, and LoU have a tendency towards violence but A) It's a change of pace from the more serious games in GoW or Killzone's sense B) LoU and many more present said violence in a very grounded and weighty manner and don't take it lightly.  They use it as an avenue in the story.  If you play to the end of GoW3 you'll see even this series makes you question your violent actions.  I love Nintendo AND Sony especially their exclusives and I enjoy each game for different reasons.  I like some that are cinematic, some that are strictly about gameplay, some that are violent, some that are silly, and some that are peaceful and/or serious.  I don't insult others' games for being different from my own choices.
